Gah! I just started paying attention to this (bad me). I will see if I can work your changes in to my updated framework (I have some parallel code, private attack rolls for example). One significant issue is the changes to the State Images. I have added some, and you have a bunch of additions as well. There is no trivial way to merge the two. Do you have the original images for the state images you added so I can add them in?

I apologize for the newb question, but do I need to follow the instructions from the previous version (making a separate map for the .lib tokens), or does the "Limbo" map fulfill that need already?

Edit: Second newb question, does every player need the framework or just the GM?

Sorry, I did not see your post in the sea of them. The Limbo map fulfills the requirement of the Lib:Tokens. No, they only need to download the MapTools program either the zip version or the WebStart jnlp version. Caveat Emptor: If you want your players to make their tokens before gametime, they will need to D/L the FW so they can make them.

Can you do me a favor and check to see if Deadly Aim works correctly for Pathfinder? It should be a rolling bonus/penalty based on every 4 levels of the character. I haven't had a chance to look yet.

Are the states 1_, _1, A, etc. used by anything anyone? I can't seem to find those anywhere so have not added them into my framework as of yet... hummm... maybe I will just harvest them out of the campaign zip...

Deadly Aim: I did not check your changes but I know it is working correctly in my base framework... I will keep an eye on it as I merge the changes.

They are for applying code letters/numbers to marker tokens.

Imagine that you want to label a bunch of rooms. So you drop down a marker token, one per room, and type in the description (both player and GM) into the proper Notes' fields on the token.

But you have no number that references back to your module.

You could create a different graphic for each marker, but that's a lot of redundant work. So putting states on them is easier. And with a macro to create/initialize the marker, a lot of it can even be automated. Imagine using copy/paste from a PDF into a text field. The macro then parses out the room number, room title, and the boxed text and populates the macro for you. The room number is changed into states and also copied to the marker Name, the room title is put into the GM Name field, and the player and GM notes are also added automatically.

Having said all that, I don't use that technique. I create markers, but I simply change their name to the room number. I haven't created the macro I mentioned above because I go through spurts of "map prep" and between spurts I don't want to spend time on it, and when I need to create a new map I don't have time to build a macro -- I just want to get it done. "Why is there always time to do something over, but never enough time to do it right in the first place."

Actually, when I developed those numbers I created a macro for easy configuration. It also doubles as a map note for PCs to view by clicking on a scroll in a room for room description. The macro controls the visibility to the PCs as well.
